Levetiracetam works by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain, thereby reducing the occurrence of seizures. It is often prescribed as an adjunctive (additional) treatment for partial onset seizures, myoclonic seizures, and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in adults and children over one month of age.

The dosage and frequency of levetiracetam tablets are determined by a healthcare provider based on factors such as the patient’s age, weight, kidney function, and the type and severity of seizures being treated. It’s essential to take levetiracetam exactly as prescribed and to not suddenly stop taking it without consulting a healthcare professional, as this can increase the risk of seizures.

Common side effects of levetiracetam may include drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, irritability, loss of appetite, and infections. Serious side effects are rare but can include severe mood changes, suicidal thoughts, and allergic reactions.

If you experience any unusual or severe side effects while taking levetiracetam tablets, it’s important to contact your healthcare provider immediately.

As with any medication, it’s essential to discuss with your healthcare provider about your specific condition, medical history, and any other medications you are taking to ensure levetiracetam tablets are safe and appropriate for you. Your healthcare provider can provide guidance on proper dosage, potential side effects, and any necessary precautions or interactions to be aware of.
